It seems that Sony isn’t the only company announcing a new focus on mobile games following Nintendo’s success in the field. Capcom is planning on getting in on mobile gaming as well, and it’s bringing some of its most popular franchises along for the ride.
The company announced in a blog post aimed at investors that it has established a new mobile gaming division, and it aims to produce four new games by March 31, 2017. These titles will be based on popular games and franchises from the company, and unlike Sony’s recent announcement of ForwardWorks, the company plans to distribute its mobile games both “domestically and abroad.”
The company has announced Mega Man, Monster Hunter, and Sengoku Basara as some of the franchises the new games will be based on. In the past, the company has produced mobile ports of various Mega Man and Monster Hunter games, but this will be the first time that new games based on the franchises will appear on mobile devices.
“Capcom Co., Ltd. (Capcom) today announced it has established a “Mobile Business Division” with the purpose of reorganizing its mobile operations. This division aims to produce hit titles both domestically and abroad by aggressively utilizing the company’s popular IP. Overall, the Capcom Group will strengthen licensed content in Asia in accordance with their new mobile strategy.”
